As any parent knows, watching your little one struggle with a stuffy nose can be both heart-wrenching and frustrating. Those tiny, blocked nasal passages can make sleeping, eating, and even breathing a challenge for your baby or child.

What Are Nasal Drops?

A stuffy nose is a common problem for babies and young children. Their small nasal passages can get clogged easily, which can lead to discomfort, difficulty breathing, and sleepless nights for both you and your little one.

Nasal drops are liquid solutions designed to be applied into the nasal passages to relieve nasal congestion. This helps to thin mucus and reduce swelling in the nostrils, making it easier for your child to breathe.

These drops are particularly beneficial during the cold and flu season, but can also be used year-round to alleviate symptoms associated with allergies or other irritants.

Now that you understand the importance of nasal drops and their potential to provide much-needed relief from nasal congestion, we can dive into the simple and easy steps to using nasal drops. But before starting the process, remember to wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water.

Lay Them Down

Place your baby on their back with a rolled-up towel under their shoulders, which slightly tilts their head back. While they are in this position, it's easier to administer the drops.

Applying nasal drops can sometimes be a difficult task, as babies can move around to resist. Try to distract or soothe your baby with their favorite toy or a lullaby.

Hold the dropper above your baby's nostrils and squeeze 2-3 times per nostril. Afterwards, let them stay lying down so that the solution to flow into the nasal passages.

Nasal drops can be applied 3-4 time daily or as needed.

Clear Out the Mucus

Gently wipe away any excess or loose mucus from your baby's nose using a small cotton bud, or a nasal aspirator (also known as a suction bulb).

If you are using an aspirator, squeeze it first, then gently insert the tip into your baby's nostril, and slowly release your squeeze to collect the mucus.

Clean the tip of the dropper and other tools

Wipe the tip of the dropper with a clean cloth or cotton after each use.
